Apparently the only way I can blog these days is in bullet point form.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Not gonna lie, I've been struggling with what else to write. I've been distracted multiple times and I can't think of what to say.

Tonight at dinner Mr. B asked me what my plans are for tomorrow and I said "I need to buy some laundry detergent".
How's that for a busy day?!
Try not to be too jealous.

Speaking of, what detergent do you use?
Here's the thing...once you go pod there's no turning back.
Am I right, or am I right?
All it takes is one time using a pod and suddenly pouring detergent into a hole seems like way too much work.
And this is what we call a first world problem.
Like, to the max.

My laundry is finally put away just in time for more laundry to be folded and put away.
Circle of life.

We had our annual little family weekend away at the beach a couple weekends ago.

It was perfect.

I'm still catching up on pictures, but I got some keepers.

I'm still not pregnant. Bring on month 4...

- - - - - - - - - - - - -

I'm thinking about starting a fertility facebook group again if anyone is interested! I've received a few emails {sorry for not responding yet!} from other ladies who have been struggling.
Knowing you're not alone on this stupid roller coaster is so helpful!

We took the siding off the house this weekend.
And by "we" I mean Mr. B, our dads, my brother and a friend.

And the new siding isn't being put on for 3 weeks so...that's attractive.

Everyone loves to be the classy house in the neighborhood that's wrapped in paper.
Especially one where the paper is upside down on half your house.
I think we get bonus points for that?

My dad and brother aren't attentive to details and Mr. B and his dad are.
I'll let you guess who did the top half and who did the bottom.

Projects like these always make you realize how awesome family and friends really are though!

Tonight I made a delicious and super easy dinner- courtesy of Pinterest, of course!

I used red potatoes, green beans, carrots and 3 chicken breasts. Put it all in a pan, I used half a packet of italian dressing, 1/2 stick of butter and drizzled some olive oil. Covered with foil, baked at 375 for 45 minutes. I added some feta and voila! We all loved it! Next time I'd add more veggies though, it seemed like a lot at the time, but the after it cooked it didn't seem like that many and we definitely could've eaten more.

I finally conquered the craft area of our basement today.
It only took me 9 months.
Because who wants to waste their time cleaning the basement during nap time??
Not me.
But it had to be done.

It's all mismatched and not the prettiest, but at least it's clean!

Mr. B is getting a new car and I'm jealous.

- - - - - - - - - - - - -

I've been loving my time off from Captured. It was definitely the right decision!

- - - - - - - - - - - -

These back to school things keep getting me all emotional.

Thank the Lord I still have time!

I'm obsessed with Timehop. If you don't have that app., get it.
It's so bittersweet, but I love it.Love it.
Especially for someone who has a terrible memory and who is beyond behind on the good ol' baby books.
A year ago yesterday Adalyn had her first little piggies!
